Spring is in the air in
Reston which means that the annual RCA election for its Board of Directors is
again gearing up!
This year is an exciting
one for RCA, as we are working hard to
educate the community on the new
development spurred by the arrival of the Silver Line and Phase 2 of the Reston
Master Plan while also recommending smart growth solutions to local and County
officials and associations to help protect Restonian’s quality of life and
Reston’s founding principles.
If you
want to take an active role in the future of Reston, please consider running
for a seat on our board!
There are five seats up for
election this year: North Point Director, Lake Anne/Tall Oaks/Town
Center Director, South Lakes Director, Hunters Woods Director,
and At-Large Director. Each seat carries a 3-year term.
How do you know which
district you’re in? It depends on where you vote in state and federal
elections. Please see the handy chart below:
- North Point: If you vote in North Point, Stuart, or Aldrin Precincts (at Aldrin
or Armstrong elementary schools)
- Lake Anne/Tall Oaks/Town Center: If you vote in Reston I, Reston II,
Reston III, or Cameron Glen Precinct (at Lake Anne or Forest Edge
elementary schools)
- South Lakes: If you vote in Sunrise Valley, South Lakes, or Terraset Precinct/(schools)
- Hunters Woods: If you vote in Dogwood Precinct, Hunter Woods Precinct (schools),
or Glade Precinct (at RCC Hunters Woods)
In order to run for a seat on the RCA Board, you must be at least 18 years old. In order to run for a District Director seat, you must live in that district. To run for At-Large Director, you may live anywhere in Small Tax District 5. All Directors serve 3-year terms. That’s it. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve lived in Reston for 30 days or 30 years, whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, what political party you belong to (RCA is non-partisan), or whether you’re younger or older (as long as you’re at least 18).
